Our content is informative, fun, and deeply connected to local culture — and we’re building a whole new layer of short- form, personality- driven video content to entertain and engage our growing community. We’re now hiring a creative, trend- savvy scriptwriter to help bring our social video ideas to life on platforms like TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
What You’ll Do
• Write 2–5 short- form scripts per week (15s–30s), optimized for TikTok and Instagram Reels
• Craft funny, relatable scenarios based on Vietnamese trends, daily life, or food/fitness culture
• Create engaging dialogue, scene setups, and visual actions for characters or actors to perform
• Collaborate with our in- house video team to match each script with shooting and editing plans
• Help build a consistent tone of voice that’s playful, sharp, and emotionally resonant
• Spot emerging trends early and adapt them into fresh video concepts quickly
What You Bring
• Deep understanding of Vietnamese internet culture, TikTok humor, memes, and Gen Z language
• Strong creative writing and storytelling instincts, especially for short, punchy formats
• Native- level Vietnamese writing that feels real, current, and scroll- stopping
• Proven ability to write in different tones — from chaotic and funny to emotional and meaningful
• Bonus: experience writing character- based scripts or working with a creative video team
• Great sense of timing, dialogue, and what works visually
Nice to Have
• Interest in lifestyle, food, or fitness content
• Light editing skills (even just using CapCut or TikTok Drafts to test timing)
• Background in comedy, fan fiction, social media content, or advertising
What You’ll Get
• Collaboration with a sharp, experienced in- house production team
• A creative playground with the freedom to pitch, write, and test new ideas every week
• Real impact — your ideas will be seen by tens of thousands of users (and growing fast)
• An opportunity to shape the social voice of a fast- growing app in Vietnam
Compensation:
• Paid per script, with flexible rates based on quality. Bonus available for high- performing, viral content.
